[Verse 1] The people remembered the flesh pots and bread, Forgot all the chains and the labor they fled. Hunger made Egypt look generous and near; Murmuring rose in the wilderness air. At evening the quail covered camp like a cloud; At dawn came the small thing that puzzled the crowd. [Refrain] Gather enough for the need of the day, No hoarding tomorrow, no storing away. Double before Sabbath, then cease from the field; Daily dependence is daily revealed. [Verse 2] Some kept it over; it bred worms and stank. Some sought on Sabbath and found the ground blank. An omer was guarded for children to learn: Forty years bread till the land would return. Then Rephidim waited with no water near; The people contended and sharpened their fear. [Rock Refrain] Strike the rock before elders who see; Water will answer and run for the thirsty. Massah and Meribah carried the blame: "Is the Lord among us?" they tested His name. [Final Hook] Bread from heaven, water from stone, A wilderness table where nothing had grown. Need after need, and day after day, The Lord fed His people along the hard way.
